Partial Transcript:
The first thing we need to know about Diagon alley is where is it located which is in the London area of Universal Studios. Universal Studios has built this outstanding facade of London and on the south side is King’s cross station and on the north side is the Sirius Black residence. The house elf Creature will peak out the window. The restaurant inside of Diagon Alley is the Leaky Cauldron but out here in London there is the home of the Jacket Potato. If you dial MAGIC on this telephone you’ll get a message from the Ministry of Magic. At this shopping kiosk you can get some Harry Potter stuff. Diagon Alley and London were built over the old Jaws attractions here at Universal Studios. And there are several references to Jaws here in Diagon Alley. There is also an interaction area here with the Night Bus outside of Diagon Alley. Once we get inside of Diagon Alley there will be one restaurant, the Leaky Cauldron, one ride which is Escape From Gringotts, 2 shows and a bunch of Harry Potter shops. Diagon Alley has a secret entrance that muggle don’t know about. I don’t know how many times we’ve been here to Universal Studios and first time visitors not finding the entrance into Diagon Alley. The first time I was here in Diagon Alley I couldn't find the entrance either. Inside of Diagon Alley is Knockturn Alley, where the dark wizards hand out. Inside of Knockturn Alley there is one store a few different magical wands spots for your Harry Potter interactive wand. I did a whole other vlog on all the magical wand spots, include some secret Harry Potter wand spots in Diagon Alley and Knockturn Alley to enjoy our Harry Potter vacation. The place to eat here in Universal Studios’ Diagon Alley is the Leaky Cauldron which serves breakfast as well as lunch and dinner. To get breakfast in the Leaky Cauldron at Universal Studios Orlando is on our to do list. The price in the Leaky Cauldron at Universal Studios Orlando are a bit steep. Okay let’s go check out some of the create theming areas of Diagon Alley in Universal Orlando. It is some the best in any Orlando theme park. In Diagon Alley there is an overhead railway for the Hogwarts Express, and there is even a traffic light for Hogwarts Express. Here is one of the prime photo ops in Diagon Alley and all of Universal Studios Orlando, Hagrid's motorcycle. This is one of the best photo spots in all of Universal Studios Diagon Alley. And here we have the biggest theming element of Universal Studios Diagon Alley and and theme park, the Gringotts dragon. The Gringotts Dragon will shot our fire about every 15 to 20 minutes. It’s not just visual theme in Diagon Alley at Universal Studios but there is also a lot of sound theming. Thoughout Universal’s Diagon Alley there are speakers playing Harry Potter music and more. Okay let’s check out some highlights from the Tales of Beedle the Bard and the Tale of the Three Brothers show at Universal Studios. They rotate the shows about every 30 minutes with the Tale of the Three Brothers with the Celestina Warbeck show. As we are waiting for Nikki to get here to Universal Studios’ Diagon Alley to do some shopping with me and to ride Escape from Gingotts, let’s take the Hogwarts Express over to Hogsmeade/Hogwars in Islands of Adventure. The only thing left of the Dragon Challenge at Universal’s Islands of Adventure is one little loop. Now let’s apparat back to Diagon Alley over on the Universal Studios side of the theme park. Okay Nikki take us into some of the Harry Potter shops they have here in Diagon Alley of Universal Studios Orlando. Madam Malkum’s will have everything you need to dress as if you were a student in Harry Potter’s Hogwarts. Herminie’s dress is for sale here. They even have Harry Potter jewelry. Let’s take a look at Nikki’s Gryffindor shirt. Here is the Gryffindo hat that looks like my Hufflepuff hat. Here is the Golden Snitch quidditch game for sale. The golden snitch will look good on top of our Harry Potter Christmas tree. There is only ride inside the Diagon Alley area of Universal Studios and it’s the Escape from Gringotts roller coaster. Here are the test seat for the Escape From Gringotts ride. Escape from Gingotts is one of my favorites rides at Universal Studios theme park in Orlando. At first I was expecting it to be more like the indoor roller coaster, Revenge of the Mummy roller coaster. Over time I have really grown to love the Escape From Gringotts ride at Universal Studios. And now I would consider it one of the best rides at Universal Studios Florida. Nikki would say that of the three Harry Potter rides at Universal Studios Orlando, Escape From Gingotts is her favorite.

This was a great video! I didn't realize that Diagon Alley was so big. It's like a park within a park! Lol! I'm not much of a Harry Potter fan (although I did see the first two movies - never got around to seeing the rest of them), but I look forward to checking this area out when I visit Universal Studios. It definitely seems to be a must-see. Thanks so much for taking us on the tour! And thanks, Nikki, for showing off the shops!
It really is an awesomely theme area, even if you aren't the biggest of Potter fans. So many details, there were still something I didn't get to in this video.
It is amazing how empty it is! What part of the year was this trip from?
The soul singer is fab!
You're doing a good job in fact I have become a follower so you keep up the good work and I hope you have a wonderful New year.
The kids first trip to Universal was this year in June. Their reactions to The Wizarding World of Harry Potter was awesome. We need to go back and finish up all the little things. We still talk about "muggle money".
It's pretty amazing. Nikki and my girls have read every book several times, while I'm more of a movies guy....regardless it's a family affair with us too.
Your videos are awesome, I can’t wait to hear all the difference sounds when we come next year. Can’t wait to see the Harry Potter Christmas tree. Loved Nikki shirt, and hat.
Thanks, I'm glad you enjoy them. We're getting in the holiday season and it's going to be amazing.
Absolutely love this part of the park. Got to love getting a frozen Butterbeer. Great video as usual.
Thanks. And we're pretty sure they are going to expand it....eventually.
Love your videos Rix - brilliant!! When was it that you made this video, can you remember? It looks so empty...did you get to park early or just a quiet time of year?
Your video is amazing!
Another awesome video! I'll have to switch to planning Disney at some point, but I'm missing HP world too much yet. Thanks for helping me get my fix! BTW... we did the Shutterbuttons video. Love it!!!
Thanks. That was actually our first time in Shutter's....pretty cool stuff. There is still plenty in Diagon Alley we didn't cover....it can be an overwhelming place to vlog.
There certainly is a lot to do!
It still makes me sad seeing Dragon Challenge being taken down...
well if they want people to keep coming, they need to keep updating rides and attractions.
Very cool! I'd love to take our kids there someday. :)
Thanks. It's an awesome place. We are very fortunate to live so close. My kids love it.
Your videos are great and very well put together. Thanks for the info. Visiting next week with my family and 10 year old Harry Potter fan. All your info is going to make it so much fun. What kind of camera do you shoot with?
Thanks, and so excited you have a visit to the parks so soon. I use the canon GX7 Mark II. It's pretty compact with great stabilization. I shoot at 60 FPS.
Will be there in a couple weeks. How much was the breakfast???
Love your videos!!! Quick question. I've never seen anyone get a close up shot. In front of Weasley's shop, there is something about the Dark Mark. What is it?? I actually have the tattoo. :) .
IDK, but I was just saying to Nikki the other day, "I wonder if people have actually gotten the dark mark as a tattoo" I figured the answer had to yes.
OK. Thanks. Lol, yep, there are a few of us. I've seen others. A major thrill when at HP parties! "Hey, What house are you?" I just roll up my sleeve
Hi my bestfriend and I are coming September 27th thru October 1st. Will you be there any of those days??? I have gotten so many great tips from you!!! would love to meet you guys!!!
Best thing to do is follow us on instagram. As soon as we arrive at a park we will post a picture and you'll know where we are.
Great video,😉 but I almost fell off my chair when I saw the pricing-sign that said 11.69 for a Hot Dog and Crisp.
I live in Denmark, A Country with one of the worlds highest taxes, but that there is just a perversely insane price.😂 Do people save up the several years before they visit this park?😲
Theme park pricing for food, it's expensive but you do allow you to bring in your own food. Yes, a lot of people save up for years before visiting Disney and Universal...Disney is MORE expensive. Luckily, I live in Florida so I get a discount on my passes. Last time I renewed, they had a deal...18 months for like $420.
You know it’s a dead day when there are maybe only 15 people in the crowd at Diagon Alley.
Love this! Would you recommend going in October. It doesn’t look crowded when you guys go.
October can be a little tricky because of Fall break that a lot of Northern schools get but it is better than Spring break and Summer time. I actually thin the first couple of weeks in November are better. And we typically get to the park as soon as it opens so the crowds and wait times are not as bad.
Rix Flix is December a good time too? Like the first two weeks? Thanks for the info!
@@Brttan I was planning the same time December 10th to be exact I hope it's not as full when I went in October
What time of year/day were you in Diagon Alley? It's so empty!
hehe, people always say that...it's just because I got in the park as soon as it opened.
I know this is an old video but how is it so empty??!?!?!? Is that a good time to go? Did you go as soon as it opened?
Might be some time between early August and late September. A crowds calendar for all the big theme parks in Florida shows that crowds plunge after August because the kids have to go to school. Still, a LOOOOOOT of parents take their kids out of class just to go on vacation.
And then get mad at the teachers when the kids fall behind in class...
What time of year were you at Universal Orlando in this video? Just curious.
Late October in 2017
Harry Potter Wizards World Universal Studios Hollywood Classic Fo 2019 Come Kid Do?
